I have tried many, Costco is good quality, will do Polarized and are much lower priced than most.

The best Optometrist I have ever dealt with is in Stony Plain, I-Care, with Dr. Kattan.

If you're strictly looking for a deal I'm going to assume Costco, but if you're going in for a check up and want to know more then just you prescription and the overall health of your eyes definitely worth the drive.

Highly recommend

I've used the too. Good deal, but still more expensive than Zenni.

Default Complicated

My apologies.

I should have been more clear in my initial post.

My prescription is complicated and mail order is not an option for me.

Thanks to those who posted those option though.

Second Specs Edm. I've had several glasses that cost $700 plus. 2nd Specs they were $106, bifocal about double that and easily better than any of the previous I've had.
